I wish Graphene was my case but my phone is unrootable. My best is just deleting googleware via shizuku and installing microG instead. That’s what I think is dangerous: not microG, but installing it like this

I actually patched it on another phone. Does host machine make difference on how Magisk patched the boot.img?

What is this?

You’re right, I forgot to specify this

Lol. MacOS is based on BSD and Mach which are open source, but MacOS is still proprietary. Any normal modern browser syncs anything between devices and has a builtin password manager (which supports sync as well). Even stock Firefox is customizable with countless themes and vertical tabs and has a decent adblocker. No idea why you need calendar in a browser though.

And, finally, a quote from Vivaldi’s EULA, showing its high attitude to being FOSS:

7\. Without limiting the foregoing, you are neither allowed to (a) adapt, alter, translate, embed into any other product or otherwise create derivative works of, or otherwise modify the Software ; (b) separate the component programs of the Software for use on different computers; © reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the Software, except as permitted by applicable law; or (d) remove, alter or obscure any proprietary notices on the Software or the applicable documentation therein.

I guess Helium supports manifest v2 despite mainline Chromium engine dropping it, but Helium is desktop only

What’s good about Vivaldi? Just yet another proprietary browser, but such a dedicated community

I need it for my job. And I actually hate it (both the job and wa).

Also maybe Podman. Almost the same as Docker but rootless.

You are already familiar with Debian, so it will be easier. Debian is more friendly than you might think. This is enough to choose it.

You should probably check your system time in BIOS. It is a very common issue I have personally encountered.

Technically AOSP also runs a Linux kernel. Lineage and Graphene are like this only for compatibility reasons, no one stops them if they decide to fork. And AOSP itself is still not that bad though

I get it with Canonical and Red Hat, but why Linus? What is he doing recently?

postmarketOS, LineageOS, GrapheneOS?

I know they have limited hardware support but that’s only a matter of involvement at the end of the day

Eliminating some obscure bugs from C code is not worth intruducing a lot of new bugs. GNU coreutils have been used and polished for so long, that it would be far more effective just to fix the issues as they reveal right in the original code. If rewriting removes one kind of bugs while introducing another - then what’s the whole point?

I cannot imagine obviously buggy code from 2020s being more secure than code that has been around since previous century. Again, even if Rust for real is a better solution for security reasons, the way it is being developed and shipped is not how one makes software more secure. Disregarding the license, uutils look like something pursuing hype, not strategical benefits.

Holy crap.

He’s talking about Bun being completely rewritten from Zig to Rust by Claude after the project was acquired by Anthropic

Have you tried Artix?

You’re both right and not exactly. I use Fedora as my main OS and enjoy it, but I never even try installing it on a secondary cheap laptop. Same but vice versa with Debian. I love Alpine but I never touch it unless I need a container. I could continue forever. I’m still distrohopping, exploring, with the only “but” that I’m not changing my daily main platform.

First of all, it wasn’t rejected. Several noticeable distros included it to their repos or began testing. And the reason Void Linux yet hasn’t, is that the team isn’t sure about Xlibre’s longevity.

I see no reason in cancelling XLibre due to developer’s political views. It’s free and open source, that’s it. Enrico Weigelt gets nothing for working on it. Furthermore, it is good that he’s making XLibre. He’s doing something safe and useful. He could’ve become a political bloger or activist and influence minds instead of coding. Now ask yourself, if this would be better than maintaining an obscure fork of a deprecated piece of software, which is hardly going to ever be adopted in security-sensitive environments (because they are on distros with Wayland already).
